One of our first experiments with resin started here. Each home we visited would have stacks of art and design books displayed as accessories, so why not make them sculptural? We took imprint moulds from linen bound books and cast them in various colours of tinted resin. The result was a curious ghostly object that is exciting to place on shelves or stack on tables.
The GHOST WRITER collection comprises six ghost books: ATLAS, TOME, PICTURE BOOK, SKETCHBOOK, MEMOIR and TEXTBOOK.
These books were selected for their dimensions and cover textures. As a set they all stack together into a beautiful sculpture or stand alone as a single focal object. Cast individually and tinted by hand.
